Side-Chain Length and Dispersity in ROMP Polymers with Pore-Generating Side Chains for Gas Separations [PDF]
JACS Au, 2022 Bottlebrush polymers with flexible backbones and rigid side chains have shown ultrahigh CO2 permeability and plasticization resistance for membrane-based gas separations. To date, this class of polymers has only been studied with polydisperse side chains.

The Effects of Charged Amino Acid Side-Chain Length on Diagonal Cross-Strand Interactions between Carboxylate- and Ammonium-Containing Residues in a β-Hairpin [PDF]
Molecules, 2022 The β-sheet is one of the common protein secondary structures, and the aberrant aggregation of β-sheets is implicated in various neurodegenerative diseases. Cross-strand interactions are an important determinant of β-sheet stability.

Efficient Synthesis for Altering Side Chain Length on Cannabinoid Molecules and Their Effects in Chemotherapy and Chemotherapeutic Induced Neuropathic Pain [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2022 (1) Background: Recently, a number of side chain length variants for tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol have been identified in cannabis; however, the precursor to these molecules would be based upon cannabigerol (CBG).

Effects of isoleucine 135 side chain length on the cofactor donor-acceptor distance within F420H2:NADP+ oxidoreductase: A kinetic analysis [PDF]
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2017 F420H2:NADP+ Oxidoreductase (Fno) catalyzes the reversible reduction of NADP+ to NADPH by transferring a hydride from the reduced F420 cofactor. Here, we have employed binding studies, steady-state and pre steady-state kinetic methods upon wtFno and ...

Penam sulfones and β-lactamase inhibition: SA2-13 and the importance of the C2 side chain length and composition. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 β-Lactamases are the major reason β-lactam resistance is seen in Gram-negative bacteria. To combat this resistance mechanism, β-lactamase inhibitors are currently being developed.
